I would say "an ndeachaigh sé" is correct, but I believe that "ar ndeachaigh sé" is good northern grammar! As far pronunciation, I don't do it. But imeoidh is a broader sound than imíodh. |

Imeoidh is pronounced with an 'o' sound before the 'e' sound. Imíodh would be pronouced with an 'e' sound but with a 'ch' sound at the end as far as I'm aware. |

Past tense uses "níor" and "ar"... except for 6 of the 11 irregular verbs: Chuaigh, Ní dheachaigh, An ndeachaigh? Chonaic, Ní fhaca, An bhfaca? Dúirt, Ní dúirt, An ndúirt? Fuair, Ní bhfuair, An bhfuair? Rinne, Ní dhearna, An ndearna? Bhí, Ní raibh, An raibh? That's the standard... however, in different dialects, there's one or two more or one or two less that get "ní" and "an". For example, I myself say: Tháinig ; Níor tháinig ; Ar tháinig ; gur tháinig ; nár tháinig but I've definitely seen written before: Ní tháinig, go dtáinig Ulster Irish I believe. Also you'll hear and see "Ar chuaigh, gur chuaigh". An imeoidh sé? I myself say: An n-imeoidh sé? which I pronounce sort-of like: On nimoey shay? ("oey" as in "Joey") As for: An n-imíodh sé? On nim'ee'ug shay ( 'ee' as in "Eazy" ) |
